State Of Grace

First I tolf to myself there was no more than the sound

Of the wind through an open door, and if no one

entered it was no crime ?at least it was none of

mine, and all isaw I kept at bay, an empty heard

in an emtpy space, there was no reason for me to

live, I had nothing to give, nothing to give

I closed my eyes and to my surprise my heard

was beating I was still alive

Was there really nothing I could do?

No, it canжЉ° be true!

IжЉіe been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long

IжЉіe been lying to myself, lying to myself

And it canжЉ° go on

Cause IжЉ¦ lying in state, IжЉіe been lying in a state of grace

IжЉ¦ lying in state

IжЉіe ben lying to myself and it canжЉ° go on

At first I tried to blame the world for all evils

That were unfurled, flags of sin blowing in the

Wind over church and state, the rich and the

Great, but when I listened all I really heard was

My own voice and my own words, sometimes

Begging for love, sometime screaming with

hate, screaming with hate

I donжЉ° trust that voice in my head, itжЉЇ not mine itжЉЇ the voice of the dead

And why do you ask me what I think is true?

I learned it all from you!

IжЉіe been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long

IжЉіe been lying to myself, lying to myself and it canжЉ° go on

Cause IжЉ¦ lying in state, IжЉіe been lying in a state of grace

IжЉ¦ lying in state

IжЉіe lying to myself and canжЉ° go on

In the end, you are my only friend and all I see is you,

and all I have to give, my friend, I will give it to you.

Who do I mean? Who am I talking to?

How could it be more plain to you? Wake up.

Look in your heart. Who are you? What is your name?

If I take a shit in your perfect world itжЉЇ only so

YouжЉ£l know me by my smell

And though you turn away like you donжЉ° understand

You know all too well

You donжЉ° want to look, you donжЉ° want to touch

You donжЉ° want tp pay cause it costs so much

You just smile and wish me well

Well, you can go to hell!

Cause IжЉ¦ lying in state, IжЉіe been lying in a state of grace

IжЉ¦ lying in state

IжЉіe lying to myself and canжЉ° go on
